I don't think food should be taxed, and I don't like the way big agri-business has taken over and put small farms out of business. And I don't think water should be taxed, and I believe we deserve clean, pure water to drink, and pesticide-free food to eat. I don't really think it's fair that now we as a people have to either buy bottled water, or filters, in order to have pure water. WE didn't pollute the water, business did.
As far it being non-profit, I don't know. Working a farm is HARD, I know, my mother was raised on a farm and my uncle had a working farm. I really think that, over the past 30 years, profit has become such a motivating factor in everything that it has polluted the capitalist model. There is nothing wrong with making a profit, but there is something seriously wrong with making a profit at the cost of health, and fairness, and the benefit of society.
